Wds - TRENDnet WAP-200A User Manual

Wireless On/Off
This option turns off and on the wireless connection feature of the AP.
Wireless Network Name
When you are browsing for available wireless networks, this is the name that will appear in the
list (unless Visibility Status is set to invisible, see below). This name is also referred to as the
SSID. For security purposes, it is highly recommended to change from the pre-configured
network name.
Visibility Status
The Invisible option allows you to hide your wireless network. When this option is set to Visible,
your wireless network name is broadcast to anyone within the range of your signal. If you're not
using encryption then they could connect to your network. When Invisible mode is enabled,
you must enter the Wireless Network Name (SSID) on the client manually to connect to the
network.
Transmission Rate
By default the fastest possible transmission rate will be selected. You have the option of
selecting the speed if necessary.
802.11 Mode
If all of your devices can connect in 802.11g Mode, you can change the mode to 802.11g only.
If you have some devices that are 802.11b, leave the setting at Mixed.
Adaptive Radio Selection
Check this box to enable Adaptive Radio feature in Dynamic Turbo mode.
Auto Channel Select
If you select this option, the AP automatically finds the channel with least interference and uses
that channel for wireless networking. If you disable this option, the AP uses the channel that
you specify with the following Channel option.
Channel
A wireless network uses specific channels in the 2.4GHz wireless spectrum to handle
communication between clients. Some channels in your area may have interference from other
electronic devices. Choose the clearest channel to help optimize the performance and
coverage of your wireless network.
